We are starting to see an interesting phenomenon with Youshi Guo and the perception of the taste of YG Exotic Blend. We have noticed that it is primarily people who suffer from headaches and migraines who tend to initially dislike the flavor of the product. As many of you know, everyone who tastes the product has their own unique experience with the flavor. The reason for the differing taste is because your body will single out which fruit in the Blend it needs for your immediate nutritional health needs. This is similar to why women will crave chocolate during certain times of the month: their bodies crave the magnesium that is in dark chocolate to satisfy their nutritional needs.
After some research, I have concluded that the fruit the bodies of these headache sufferers are focusing in on is probably Noni. The taste of Noni berries is very bitter and not very pleasing, however it has great nutritional health benefits and this is why we have it in our formulation. We wanted to provide a whole health nutritional solution.
I tell everyone using the Youshi Guo Exotic Blend to “give your body the time it needs to bring your system back into balance.” Most people will notice a “taste change” within two to four weeks when using the product consistently.
Here is an interesting research article about the effects of Noni on brain circulation:
Morinda citrifolia fruit (noni) reduces stress-induced impairment of cognitive function accompanied by vasculature improvement in mice. -Physiol Behav. 2010 Sep 1;101(2):211-7. Epub 2010 Apr 21.

Did you know what you don’t eat can hurt you?
For the past two weeks The Daily Blend has explored the important role of the minerals Potassium and Magnesium in achieving and maintaining health powered living. According to Dr. Dean Tindall, a member of the Medical Research Team for the Youshi Guo Company, and Director of the Elizabethtown Chiropractic and Natural Healing Center, another vital mineral we may overlook is Iodine. He notes that many Americans are deficient in this critical nutrient.
A deficiency in Iodine can negatively affect the health and functioning of the body and mind. The symptoms of iodine deficiency that affect the mind range from feelings of frustration and anxiety to depression, and in extreme instances, mental retardation. The World Health Organization identifies iodine deficiency as among the leading causes of mental retardation worldwide. Physical symptoms of iodine deficiency can include dry, scaly skin, fatigue, constipation, unusual weight gain, impaired thyroid functioning, decreased fertility, and even growth abnormalities.
A natural source of Iodine can be found in KELP – one of the ingredients in Youshi Guo Exotic Blend. This seaweed provides an abundance of natural iodine, which is missing from much of the soil on the continents. Kelp also provides nutritional support to the nervous system and heart in the form of iodine, vitamins, minerals and cell salts. In fact, all of the minerals required by human beings in addition to iodine, including calcium, sodium, magnesium, potassium, iron and zinc, are present.
Dr. Tindall says, “In our research for formulating the YG Exotic Blend, Dr. Hargan and I both concluded KELP was a wonderful addition to the fruits and berries largely because of the essential minerals, such as Iodine, that it provides.”
In conclusion – take your 3 ounces a day of YG Exotic Blends, and find those “Missing Minerals!”
Did you know what you don’t eat can hurt you?
Last week The Daily Blend explored the important role of Potassium in good health—particularly as it relates to hypertension. This week we will take a look at Magnesium and why it is another important “missing mineral” for many of us in achieving and maintaining health powered living.
Did you know what you don’t eat can hurt you?
We are all aware that we eat too much of many things—sugar, salt, saturated fats, alcohol, and food in general! But there are also important nutrients that we simply don’t get enough of that can increase our risk of serious health problems, including high blood pressure and diabetes. Over the next several weeks The Daily Blend will explore the vital role minerals such as Potassium, Magnesium, and Iodine play in health powered living, and how YG Exotic Blend and good food choices can help you get what you may be missing!
In The Daily Blend last week – Everyone Should Have Abundant Energy—we explored the importance of the acid/alkaline balance in our body chemistry in achieving and maintaining a high energy level as part of health powered living. The choices we make of what we eat and drink can play a major role in sustaining a good pH balance.
Our bodies maintain an alkaline reserve to help “neutralize” too much acid, such as when we have overindulged in acid-forming foods – especially fried and processed food. When we call upon these reserves too often, they become depleted, and acid residues build up in our body fluids and tissues. This lowers our energy and resistance to disease. Dr. Theodore Baroody, like many other nutritionists, advises … “To replenish and sustain your alkaline reserves, follow the Rule of 80/20 – which means eat 80% of your foods from the alkaline-forming list and 20% from the acid-forming list.” For most of us, this means eating less meat, dairy, processed food, white flour and sugar, and more fruits and vegetables. Just what Mom always said!
You have already taken a great step in the right direction by taking 3 ounces daily of YG Exotic Blend. The fruits and kelp are alkalizing. To help you make other wise choices, refer to the lists on the chart titled “Food and Chemical Effects on Acid/Alkaline Body Chemical Balance” developed by Dr. Russell Jaife, and follow the 80/20 guideline!

How often do you feel tired and fatigued? Or, hear others complaining that they have no energy and just don’t feel as good as they used to? Too often in our society we just accept that this is a natural part of aging along with creaky joints, aching back and insomnia. You know what they say… “You fall apart when you reach age 40!” This does NOT have to be.
We’re very excited to announce that we now have a FREE iPhone and iPad app available to all Youshi Guo distributors. The app is located in your back office. Simply login to your account and look in your back office to download. Here’s a few screen shots for you to enjoy!

Why should I buy organic products? Are they worth the extra cost?
First of all, you should understand what “USDA Certified Organic” means. Crops must be grown without the use of pesticides, chemical fertilizers, genetic engineering, radiation, or sewage sludge in soil that has been kept free of these substances for at least three years. Farmers must use crop rotation, tilling and natural composting to keep the soil fertile and the plants fed, and birds, butterflies and ladybugs help control insect pests! Organic produce contains more nutrients because of better soil quality, and the toxins from chemical pesticides and fertilizers are eliminated, so do not accumulate in our bodies.
Similarly, organic meat, milk, eggs and meat products are produced from animals fed with 100 percent organic feed who have not been given hormones to promote growth or antibiotics for any reason. Also, the animals must have access to the outdoors, including pastures for animals that graze. These standards help keep these foods safe, and again, help prevent the health dangers the cumulative effects of toxins can bring. From studies in 2006 from the FDA and USDA as reported in Prevention magazine, beef, pork, poultry, milk cheese and butter all transfer to us harmful pesticides and chemicals if they are not produced in ways that meet the organic standards.
